Gushi Special

In the footsteps of forebears

With a strong sense of ancestral identity, Chinese at home or from abroad are willing to take epic journeys to visit their family homelands.

Founders of Fujian

Following in their steps, the 20-person team from Gushi visited descendants in Fujian and other provinces traversed by the expedition.

As the starting point, the Chen Yuanguang Ancestral Temple in Chenji was newly refurbished before Oct 1.

Chen's statue stands in the center of the main hall to receive admirers. An inscribed board above the hall and couplets on both sides praise his great deeds in developing Fujian.
